The vertical-break disconnector consists of one arm which, by moving on the plane of the insulators supporting it, closes the circuit on a fixed contact located on the side insulator.
Since the movement of the arm takes place on the same plane as that of the insulators, the phase-to-phase spacing is minimized.
Two models are available:
The former (SHD) is characterized by an extremely simple design and it is rather cheap; the latter (SLOB) can provide very high performance levels, in particular under short-circuit conditions.
Two different types of the SLOB disconnector are available (depending on the rated voltage and the rated short-time withstand current):
Rated voltage: 17.5 - 550 kV
Rated continuous current: up to 6300 A
Rated short-time withstand current: up to 75 kA (3 s)
